Default Turbo back from Swaintech

Seems that they did a really nice job, for a great price. BTW this is a Full Race GT40 Bushing turbo with a .95 A/R

It looks like it got skeeted on.

Other than that, I'm sure it's functional and bad-***.

My bad I thought I cleaned all the skeet off before I took the pics

Kelly- the car should be ready in about 2 or 3 weeks, just got back from Canncoon, and have a 5 day trip to Kadahar, Afghanistan (sp) When I get back I wil have plenty of time, then get Jeremy out here to tune
Also Taccora just got on with Lockheed Martin so things should go a little faster

its comin along.
i need to send the manifold to get a new WG flange on it.
ima send it to bryson to weld it up
then i need 750s and springs/retianers/zex cam
everything else is sitting in my office just waiting

i want to get my manifold coated before i put it on.

what was the cost for your turbine?

any reason you chose swaintech instead of someone else?

i cant wait for your car to run...
HRC might have more then 3 running cars at one time

The reason I choose Seaintech was because of their reputation and the fact that they are in NY so shipping would not take as long. I cant wait for the car to run either I have been down for almost 2 yrs, and it seems like as soon as I think I have everything something else comes across that grabs my attention i.e. coating the turbo

I love Swain Tech. Be careful not to get oil on the thermal coating- it shows oil and grease easier than many of the appearance coatings do.
